back home! + added contemplations!

I just got back from London!

Well, not 'just'; I got back earlier today but have been sleeping (only got 4hours sleep! aargh!) and I went to Mass in Latin (which I've been going to for the last couple of weeks and am starting to grow fond of)


anyway, I had a really nice time in London. My friends were so sweet; we all went out for a posh meal at the Meridian Hotel, and they paid for me! They got me a cake, decorated the house with balloons and party poppers and got me a bunch of presents (one girl even made me a joke veil to wear for the evening!)

I was very touched at the efforts they went to for me!



Me looking so obviously touristy!



My friend fixing the veil on me that she made

Unfortunatly my camera ran out of battery so I dont have any more pictures, but my friends have said they would send me theirs so I will put up any more nice pics if I get them.


Here's a nice teaching I just came across

If one yields ground on any single point of Catholic doctrine, one will later have to yield later in another, and again in another, and so on until such surrenders come to be something normal and acceptable. And when one gets used to rejecting dogma bit by bit, the final result will be the repudiation of it altogether.
